  • What is peak and plateau pressure and why do we need to know what they are? How can they help us treat our mechanically ventilated patient? I hope I go a little way to explain.

    Very instructive video. @3:17 you explained that a difference greater than 5mmHg between Ppeak and Pplat is defined as an elevated Ppeak.
    Any reason why mmHg as a measurement and not cmH20 as most ventilator use this measurement?

      You got it, brother. What I love most about your presentation style is that you very adeptly take complex material, simplify it, and remain laser focused during your unpacking of it without venturing into the extraneous. Not at all easy to do. Well done, Sir. I'll let you know how it goes tomorrow.

    what is a normal platue pressure for us without ventilation what dose it tell ...is it intra alveolar pressure at inspiratory pause or trans pulmonary which is intraalveolar minus intraplural pressure

  • @jonwhite8815

    Solid explanation. So is elevated peak pressure defined solely by its relation to plateau pressure? In other words, if elevated peak pressure is defined as >5 over plateau pressure, does this mean that if plateau pressure were to be increased (and peak pressure stayed the same), the peak pressure would no longer be considered elevated even though only the plateau pressure changed? And what about the definition of high/low plateau pressure. Is it also defined only by its relation to peak pressure?

    • @ghiix2758
      @ghiix2758 Před 2 lety

      If i get your question right, If the Plateau pressure increase with no change in the Peak pressure means that there is problem with the complaince”decreased” leads to increase the elestic pressure
      And if the Peak pressure changed or increase, it could be problem with the elastic or resestive or both, so in order to know we see the plateau pressure, if increased, means that there is problem with both(elastic+resistive pressures). On the other hand, if plateau do not changed, means that problem is from resistive pressure only.
      Edit: the peak pressure related to (Elastic pressure and Resistive pressure), the Plateau pressure related more to (Elastic pressure).
      So the Plateau pressure help us to know where is the problem more accurately of Peak pressure increased.
      Hope this helps.
